As you may be aware, the Poweramp developer has been working hard on an updated material design user interface for Poweramp v3 which required a full ground-up rebuild of the code and is taking some time to get to a beta-test stage. See the forum thread for more details and to discuss, but it is currently hoped that the next Beta Test release will be ready for April 2018.

skin_dimen1..skin_dimen10 attributes to use freely in skins to workaround this issue.

Alternatively, you can just avoid such attributes or use some Poweramp defined ones (see attrs.xml)

- you can't use skin-defined parent styles (e.g. <stylename="Classic_LockScreenTheme"parent="@style/ClassicSkin">..), instead you need to duplicate theme style definition for dialogs and lock screen, if you used skin-defined parent styles for those. See updated skin_classic/res/classic_skin_styles.xml for details)

- your Android SDK Tools should be updated to at least 23.0.5 AND Android SDK Build-tools

BOTH exactly 20.0.0 and 21.1.1 versions should be installed (via e.g. command line "android" tool)

Having 2 build tools versions allows us to build one skin APK for both pre-Lollipop and Lollipop Android versions

- NOTE: if the above limitations are too much, it's possible to build APK for 5.0+ only with ant apkpush-shared and ant dist-shared. Resulting APK won't be compatible with pre-Lollipop android versions, so you'll need to maintain 2 APK builds - for pre-5.0 and for 5.0+ Androids.

I'd be happy if I could get my 12x12 layout on Nova to allow the resizing & padding of the Poweramp large home screen widget to be able to fully fill it without the gaps present on the sides of the the Poweramp widget (tried them all) and none seem to line up perfect or just right. Help? Someone? Anyone? Please? I'll pay for a play store widget pack that gives mad options & is fully functional on current OS's 5.0-5.1 8-) Also, why do people not make matching skin/widget themes? Lets make this happens peoples! 8-)
